We have had one of these for about 2 years and recently bought another one for another tv. We love it. Tons of content to choose from and works perfectly. It's also nice to hide a stick behind the tv instead of having another box.
Slow to respond, takes a very long time to load, nowhere near as fast or efficient as Roku 3. If it wasn't in the bedroom that I watch TV maybe two or three times a month, I would've returned it
Unfortunately the Roku Stick isn't as good as the other Roku products. I have a Roku 3 which works perfectly so I thought I could get the same kind of quality from the stick but I was wrong
It is very sluggish overall. The Stick will sometimes lock up when trying to exit SlingTV and will need to be powered down and restarted. Scrolling through Plex is painful due to the Stick struggling to render the movie/tv artwork. If you only plan to use Netflix and maybe Pandora, this device is fine, but applications with more complex user interfaces will bring the Stick to its knees.
loses wireless connectivity easily even when the router is 5 feet away in excellant mode. picture quality is weak with a 4k television. Get the new roku box that transmits in 4k.
